The Client

I didn't like The Client any better the second time I saw it than I did the first. Which is to say I hated it.

A teenage boy (Brad Renfro, who, despite teen magazines raving about him, does not seem cute to me) sneaks his little brother out into the woods. Why? So he can teach little brother to smoke of course. After witnessing a murder in the woods, their trailer eventually goes up in smoke and little brother winds up in a coma. Renfro's character is terrified to tell exactly what he saw and a district attorney (Susan Sarandon) desperately attempts to get it out of him.

Even if you're a John Grisham fan, don't rent this. I can't believe Grisham let them do this to his brilliant book.
